Really looking forward to the second class in Colne tomorrow (21st) at Primet Community Centre, 7.15-8.15pm

Let me know if you want to join us - all women welcome whatever your age or dance experience.

It’s a fun and friendly session, where we learn the basics of Egyptian dance and some more challenging moves (no bare bellies required and nothing too demanding!) so you get a workout without even noticing!

Here's the beginners routine we'll be working on for our 7 week course in Colne

02/10/2024

Hello lovely ladies of Colne and around!

A few women have asked me about starting a class in Colne so I thought "why not give it a try?" We'll start with a short course and, if that's a success, we can look at more sessions after Christmas.

My classes are fun and friendly, with women of all ages and dance experience joining in. At the moment, my youngest student is 18 and my oldest 86! We start with warming up our bodies to dance, then we work on posture and basic movements before we learn a few more challenging moves which we put together into a routine. We work on the same routine for a few weeks so everyone gets to feel familiar with the moves.

When we have events in the year, some students like to join in with the routines but there's no obligation - I want you to enjoy yourselves.

I've been teaching belly dance since 2002 and I'm a member of "People Dancing" the Foundation for Community Dance who provide my public liability insurance. I'm fully DBS checked too.

My teaching is focused on the wellbeing of women's bodies through dance and I have a Postgraduate Diploma in Dance and Somatic Wellbeing from UCLAN

Welcome to my page all about my Belly Dance Classes in Colne!

Important information:
Classes start on Monday 14 October
7.15-8.15pm
Primet Community Centre, Colne
Parking is available in the station carpark opposite

I'm running a seven week course initially to see how we go so classes will run from 14/10 to 25/11 (no break for half term)

The full seven week course costs £35 (that's £5 a session) or, of you'd prefer to pay weekly, it's £7 a session.

All women are welcome at the class, whether you're an experienced dancer or a total novice. Girls over 14 can also attend with an adult

Wear clothes that are easy to move in and comfortable, bring a couple of layers so you can keep warm when you need to but keep cool too. I dance barefoot but if you'd prefer to wear something on your feet, it should be flat, flexible and non-slip. Trainers are no good and some socks are okay but check.

I bring a bag of shiny scarves to borrow though you're welcome to bring your own. NO COIN BELTS in class please. They are noisy and get in the way of other people hearing me and they shed coins while we dance. If you've ever stepped on a sharp metal coin you'll know it's not nice. Coins are fine for parties though!

You can book in advance via PayPal or let me know you'd like to join the course and pay when you arrive.
